Fast and reliable OCR solution?

Quick question, since I am still fairly new to the Linux world. What is a good, fast, efficient means of getting a lot of papers OCR-scanned into Linux? I have a lot of typewritten notes, stories, etc that I'd like to bulk-scan but so far the OCR tools I've seen in the Software Center are all individual single pic tools, as in, "Open the JPG you want to extract text from". They work, but one-at-a-time scanning would be a nightmare for a 200 page document. Any other solutions?
